#One Wind Blows – Toad The Wet Sprocket, Bread and Circus

Wouldn’t know anymore than home
and couldn’t see much further
and light won’t help
a wound untended grows
and never heals
standing face to east
waiting for an answer
but the only thing is desert wind
when the wind was cold
bundled up and packed away we shiver still
finding more than one wind blows
I couldn’t sleep
something kept me still and wide awake
gnawing at my breast
something I don’t know
I couldn’t shake it
sleeping face to wall
plaster tells me nothing
but I sense a movement somewhere else
and ‘though its far away
bundled up in safety here I shiver still
finding more than one wind blows
— Solo Chords —
and ‘though its far away
bundled up in safety here I shiver still
finding more than one wind blows
he walked alone
facing wind and snow
moving slowly
he staggers, moves again
somehow stronger now
the wind won’t touch him
sleeping face to wall
plaster tells me nothing
but I sense a movement somewhere else
and ‘though its far away
bundled up in safety here I shiver still
finding more than one wind blows

Friendly Fire (Kickstarter Bonus Version)
Toad The Wet Sprocket
(From the CD New Constellation to be released Oct 2013)

| F#m | F#m | F#m | F#m | F#m | A | Bm | F#m | F#m | A | Bm | F#m |
(muted) (band in)

Not so long ago
Down from the trees and into the gutter
Naked, beautiful
Feet on the earth and heart all aflutter
Set up from the dawn
Eden was a trap and the apple was a con
From the tilt of the hips, the grasp of the hand
The word is the seed of the soul of the man
(Friendly fire) Can’t take one life for another (Friendly fire)

| F#m | F#m |

Know your history
We don’t want to learn but we want to believe
We seek out enemies
Scared to the core as we arm to the teeth
(Friendly fire) Can’t tear one life from another (Friendly fire)

We’re not separate (separate), no different (different)
We came from the earth not the firmament
We’re not separate (separate), no different (different)
| D C#m | Bm Bm
Now Yeah we’re still animals

| F#m | A | Bm | F#m | F#m | A | Bm | F#m | E D | F#m | F#m |

Get up off your knees
And don’t bow your head any more
Raise you[n/C]r voice to sing
[n/C]One song true enough for us all

We’re not separate (separate), no different (different)
We came from the dirt not the firmament
We’re not separate (separate), no different (different)
We’re still animals, just animals

We’re not separate (separate), no different (different)
We’re bound to the earth like a sacrament
We’re not separate (separate), no different (different)
| D C#m | Bm |F#m |
Now We’re still beautiful — animals

| A | Bm | F#m | F#m | A | Bm | F#m | F#m | F#m | F#m | F#m |

Well I wonder
Do we learn?
Seems we’re making the same wrong turn
Call you sacred
Call you obscene
Call you faithless Call you anything
Call and you listen
Listen listen
I’m the liar
So it seems
My desires will justify anything
So is there nothing that lies in between
This cold silence and a scream
Scream, listen
listen, listen
(bridge)
Caught in headlights, we are frozen, cannot hide
There’s no way, no time if you can I might
listen
(repeat chorus)

Watching me , A bird upon a Roof with coal-black feathers
Riff 1 E B3 Asus2
Cocks his hand, To cath my eye wondering and unfocused i
Riff1
cannot meet his stare.
He takes to wing silhouette aganist the sun sorrounded by the glare
Chorus:
Funny how the days go by invisibly
And faster than i realize the things i think about
strange to find the calendar my enemy
I am scared that when i die so will the things
Riff1
I think about.
I believe in so many things…
leading me…
Repeat chorus:
And it ends like this…
Riff1 E
On and on and on….
Riff 1 B3 Asus2
On and on and on and on…

the above tab sequence repeats for the verse
One more time he says good night
Turns out the door and off the light, cursing low
As if she didn’t know
One more time he’d comfort her
As if a word could break through her–she’s so quiet
And he’s so sick of it

Just arpeggiate these chords as you wish
Too long Too late this time
Too far Too great in my mind

One more time a runaround
Nothing meant by anyone–fine with them
Such a quiet din
Says he wants to leave a while
She just sits and tries to smile–that’s okay
It was boring anyway

Too long Too late this time
Too far Too great in my mind

Says she need a worshipper
Someone who’ll do anything at all
for her–wishful thinker
He don’t need this schizo bull
Each one misses by so far, they don’t see it
come. But who ever does?
